Many people come to this blog to find out how to make money online so I figure I would make that the Twitter Question of the Day. During lunch at Kam Do in Richmond, I sent out a tweet asking followers to reply back with the single best piece of make money online advice they’ve ever received.
The answers I got back were interesting to say the least. The cool thing about using Twitter for something like this is the 140 character limit. With that few letters available, you pretty much have to get to the point and leave out the fluff. Thanks to all who tweeted in their submissions. If you have a great piece of make money online advice that didn’t make the tweet list, feel free to add it in the comments.
